Drain unblocking prices in 2026: costs and when it's urgent
Frequently asked questions
What does drain clearing cost?
Clearing a simple sink or basin blockage is typically 12 000 – 25 000 Ft; a toilet 15 000 – 35 000 Ft. Machine clearing or a CCTV survey costs more.
How fast can someone come out?
Drain clearing is usually urgent work and many professionals offer same-day call-outs, often within 1–3 hours. Mark the job urgent when posting it.
What should I do while I wait?
Don't pour caustic drain cleaner down the pipe — it can damage the pipework and is hazardous for the professional. Stop using that drain and shut off the water in that area.
Who pays in a block of flats?
If the blockage is inside the flat's own section, the resident pays; if it's in the shared main pipe, the building normally covers it. A CCTV survey settles the question.
